The word ‘present’ would be completelyambiguous. I would try to get the event to read nicely while leaving the enddate out. You might have to use the notes field instead of the date field. Innotes, you can say things like ‘she started in 1980 and was still in thatposition as of Apr 2014’.

I amtrying to say that she worked at her present position from "1980 -present." If I want to say that, how do I do so? Should I not havespaces around the dash (similar to actual dates), do I leave "present" out or doI just say that's what I want and exclude it?
